From Mr. Siksay, our Campus Recruiter:  Saturday November 9^th at the Stratford Library. We are trying to promote the campus through a coding event from 11:00-12:00 pm that day. Do you think any of you guys could get us some student volunteers. 8-10 maybe?  We are experiencing technical difficulties pulling it all together but really want to see the event do well. Can anyone be bribed by lunch?  I created a sign-up sheet here for kids

Choose a person from an under-represented demographic to research and create an artifact about.

Use the list below for inspiration.

This is a 100 point assignment.  Extra credit if you include an interesting quote in your poster.  Additional extra credit if you choose a person who is not on the list below

Please refer to and fill out the rubric for this project.  You can access the instructions and rubric here.
